Rod Stewart's Wife Reveals Child Desire Nearly Ended Marriage

Penny Lancaster revealed in multiple interviews that her relationship with Rod Stewart nearly ended because he initially did not want to have more children, which was a deal-breaker for her. Despite Stewart's initial reluctance, he eventually agreed, and the couple now has two sons, Alastair and Aiden. They even considered adoption as recently as five years ago but decided against it due to potential age gaps. Lancaster also humorously refers to Stewart as a "big baby" who requires attention akin to that given to their children. The couple, married since 2007, has maintained a strong relationship, celebrating their 18th anniversary and renewing vows in 2017, with Stewart expressing deep love and pride for Lancaster. Lancaster's new memoir, "Someone Like Me," touches on their family life and her personal experiences, including overcoming childhood bullying and a sexual assault.
